Nope, don't use those.

I only use them to dash away from titans I've slammed into before I get mauled.

[Sergarr]

283.9s and I think I found a bug in that racing track. One of the hole wall near the end can be bypassed on both sides.

EDIT: 242s. I think to get good results you should hook only to maintain attitude and to make turns. Speed is most efficiently gained by gassing forward.

EDITEDIT: I think what this game needs is a tower climbing map. There were a lot of these maps for CS, where you must climb an extremely tall structure to win. And with 3D maneuvering gear, this should be loads of fun.

Interest in this thread seems to have tapered out. No matter.

You know, it's really easy to win in SP mode if you use Eren.

Yeah, just wait until your cooldown is up, transform and kill every titan in sight.

Not as satisfying as bringing them down the old-fashioned way though.

[BlitzDungeoneer]

Or wait for cooldown, kill them the old-fashioned way until one catches you, and then transform.

[Nighthawk]

Ha, yeah. I forgot, you can use Eren's transformation as a grab escape.

Still really hard to win on hard mode or higher, though, because the frequency with which the titans use that stupid doubleslap ability is too damn high.


In other news, playing as a titan in multiplayer makes you so overpowered that it's a seriously dick move. Honestly - you can run faster than most titans, whip around at a moment's notice, and there is absolutely no grace period for soldiers to attack you between your attacks and movement; you can literally attack super fast and then be whipping around in circles again immediately.

Don't be that guy.

[Robsoie]

Yes, player as titan is not balanced at all, on the out of the wall map this can be especially observed with the large open areas, player titan jumping fast high and very far , splashing any other players and immediately stand up and jump again to splash anyone.

for the AI titans, i'm still puzzled at how to reliably kill the crawlers, i assumed there may be some collision detection problems too as sometime a strike in the neck does not seem to register on the crawlers.

[Girlinhat]

Alright, I'm in.  Same name.  How do we group?

I still haven't figured out crawlers, either. They're just enormously overpowered, bordering on unbeatable at the moment. There's hardly any grace period between their attacks, they can jump to the sky to kill you, and they kill on contact if you're on the ground. As soon as I see them I pretty much give up.

Oh, and they behave that way even on the lowest difficulty if you're unlucky enough to have one show up.

They need SOME kind of nerf, to be sure.

[Mattk50]

For crawlers, theres a few things to keep in mind. First is that you better hope you're not levi because his blades are short as fuck and it can be hard to get a hit reliably. Second, is that when facing crawlers you want to be just above their head height so you can drop onto their nape, but not far enough in the air that they will jump at you. They are def the hardest to deal with.

[Robsoie]

I noticed there was an update :

Trost map:titan will spawn around eren titan.
Colossal titan map is back.
after suicide, titan player will respawn after 15 seconds.
capture checkpoint mode:
  decrease the capturing time.
  new AI, titan will try to capture the checkpoint.
bug fixed:
crawler player can bite human only by running now.
*stylish bar is designed by aya and bope.

[BlitzDungeoneer]

Ooooh! Let's go kill ze Colossal Titan, then.

[BlitzDungeoneer]

So...
Is anybody still interested in this? The thread seems very dead...

[Nighthawk]

Eh, I still play the game from time to time, but it's been a while. I blame the crawlers and their OP bullshit for scaring me away.

[Robsoie]

It's been a long while, i gave a quick test and noticed :
- the tutorial is fixed , you can continue after the "recharge" part
- the battle training map works and it's hell.
- i'm worse at playing this than i was before

edit : i gave a try alone to the City map version that features the checkpoint capture and wow, it's insane.
Titan spawning regularly from their own captured checkpoint (aberrant and crawler can spawn even on normal difficulty), meaning you can be overwhelmed with titans rather fast.
I guess that's a map that need a lot of players to deal with the titans spawning hordes.
